My Story

16 Aug 2025

Well, the last time I did this was the summer of 2019, so here I am again asking for money to help kids with cancer. Since then I've been a grandpa to an adorable granddaughter who just turned six! Which, has make me like kids a lot more than I used to. Haha. I've been retired since 2020 and I'm also attempting to build a wooden row boat. Still seem to find time to ride my bike though, maybe not as far or fast as I used to. It's actually been awhile since I rode 500km in one month, but for this August, I will strive to survive and hope to raise $1 per kilometre.

Looking forward to August riding explorations!

Thank you for your support.

Ian
